What’s Your Story?

We love to hear from

neighbors like you and like

Janie, who donated to PBS

North Carolina in February.

Janie and her daughter make

special memories together,

watching All Things Great

and Small; they dream of one

day visiting the filming site

and meeting the actors. These cherished evenings of popcorn

on the couch, mother and daughter, are more meaningful

than entertainment: they deepen their bond.

Your loyal support of PBS North Carolina tells us you value

the power of storytelling and PBS NC’s role in your life.

Perhaps you have stories of your own about our connection.

We want to hear from you! Please take a moment to share

your story at pbsnc.org/stories.

Hope to hear from you soon, neighbor!

A Legacy for You and North Carolina  

As we dive into summer, excited to

see family and friends, PBS North

Carolina remains your constant

companion. From our fact-based

news and information, 24/7 PBS KIDS programs, At-Home

Learning initiative, award-winning dramas and documentaries

and armchair tourism, viewers like you help make it all

possible. To sustain our quality public media into the future,

please consider leaving a legacy with an estate gift to PBS NC.

Estate gifts, whether via a bequest, life insurance, retirement

plan, gift annuity or charitable trust, are often tax-advantaged

for you and your family, and they will support PBS NC for the

benefit of the next generation of North Carolinians. To review

ways to leave a legacy, please visit pbsnclegacy.org, e-mail

giftplanning@pbsnc.org or call 877-485-3200.

Got a Ride?
